ESC & y c1 c2 [x1 d1...d(y x x1)]...[ xk d1... d(y x xk)]
[Name]
[Format]
[Range]
[Description]
y specifies the number of bytes in the vertical direction.
c1 specifies the beginning character code for the definition, and c2
specifies the final code. When only one character is desired, use c1 = c2.
x specifies the number of dots in the horizontal direction.
[Notes]
Consecutive character codes for multiple characters can be defined in one definition.
When specifying only one character, specify c1 = c2.
"d" is definition data that indicates the pattern for " x" dots in the horizontal direction
starting from the left edge. If " x" does not satisfy the number of dots in the character
configuration pattern, the remaining dots on the right are spaces.
The number of bytes required to download a character definition for one character is "
y" x " x".
In the definition data, a "1" represents a dot that is to be printed, and a "0" represents a
dot that is not to be printed.
Independent downloaded character definitions are possible for each font.
The font is selected by the "ESC !" command.
The defined downloaded characters are cleared in the following circumstances:
1) When "ESC @" is executed
2) When deleted by "ESC ?"
3) When the printer is reset or turned off
